Tinkercad
Tinkercad is a free, web-based application developed by Autodesk that introduces users to the basics of computer-aided design (CAD) through a friendly drag-and-drop interface.
It is especially popular in educational settings and makerspaces for its simplicity and accessibility.
Tinkercad allows students, teachers, and hobbyists to build 3D models from basic geometric shapes, which can then be exported for 3D printing or used in electronics and coding simulations.
It’s a powerful tool for cultivating spatial awareness, problem-solving, and design thinking in young learners or beginners in digital fabrication.
